"As
established governing bodies of various sorts explore the impact of new
rules on the Internet, the Net continues to have its own "constitutional
moments," including many that are bottom up. The BerkmanCenter's recently
launched Publius Project is an effort to understand how the Internet is
actually governed, and how we might want it to be. During this session, four
diverse perspectives among the many represented within the project will examine
how decision-making processes --whether via Web 2.0 technologies, international
organizations, or business models -- give rise to norms, rules, and
"constitutional moments" that affect our behavior online, and
ultimately define the nature of the Net."
